Hello joemiller,

Thank you for your post.

Under the Edit tab of the Historical Data window do have Daily data for the instrument and days you wish to export?

On the Edit tab of the Historical Data window expand the Historical option > then expand the instrument you are attempting to export > expand Last > expand Day > do you see the days listed you wish to export?

I look forward to your response.

below are images of the edit and load tabs.
is the exported futures contract adjusted to make it a ''continuous'' contract?

Hello joemiller,

Thank you for your response.

No, the exported futures contract would only be exported for it's expiry and not as a Continuous or merged contract.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Hello joemiller,

Thank you for your response.

Expand the 'Day' in my detail below and then check what days are listed here. Do you need to export the prior Contracts as well to get the data you wish?
